This is why I use masked cards to sign up for these services. I lock them in at a certain price per month, and if that price goes up on its own, then they’ll suddenly discover they don’t have my money.
Not that it should require a hack like that, mind you…
How do you do masked cards where you can control the regular charge amount? Is that a particular bank’s feature or?
Privacy.com’s cards offer that feature (allegory the original selling point for me was that I could use them alongside any name/address). It’s helped me cut down on attempted fraud a couple times too.
I think it’s technically a payment processor, but functionally it’s more like a proxy between a bank and online shops/services
I use an app called Privacy. You just connect your bank account to it and then setup any one time or monthly recurring payments.
Yeah, looks like probably the app for privacy.com, the website was mentioned above. Thanks!
Thanks for the comment about masked cards. I didn’t even know this was a thing.
